12206 BENSON BRANCH RD Ellicott City, MD 21042

A natural oasis in the midst of everything Howard county has to offer, this sprawling rancher has it all. Walk into the open concept living space and enjoy unobstructed views of the landscaped backyard, including a 250 square foot fenced vegetable garden. The generously sized living room includes a wood burning fireplace, dining room, and a chefs kitchen complete with deluxe appliances and reverse osmosis water filter. The newly constructed screened porch extends the living space outside where you can kick back and watch the game on the outdoor tv. Through the privacy door to the bedroom wing of the house you'll find large bedrooms and closets, including the former primary bedroom with en suite full bath. The current primary bedroom suite was an addition on to the house and provides sweeping views of the pond (included on separate, 1.09 acre property), cathedral ceilings, large bathroom and closet. The basement is an entertainers dream or an opportunity for an in law suite with a half bathroom, plumbed bar with dishwasher and refrigerator, and guest room or gym. Outside run your dog around in the invisible fence, throw a fishing line from the dock into the stocked pond, play soccer on the private and flat backyard, or shoot 3pointers on the nearly half court with adjustable height glass backboard. Recent updates include: geothermal heating and AC system (2020), gas hot water heater (2020), roof (2018), pond standpipe replacement (2019). THE CORNER LOT WHICH IS 1.09 acres is also included with the transaction.
